Two proven recovery techniques. One complete solution.
Cryotherapy and pressotherapy work
together to reduce inflammation,
stimulate circulation and accelerate
muscle repair — delivering a faster,
more complete and evidence-based
recovery for every horse.
WHAT THE
COMBINED EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACH
Cryotherapy and pressotherapy deliver
dual-action recovery: cold controls
inflammation and pain, while sequential
compression restores circulation and
lymphatic drainage.
The result is faster, more complete
recovery — from cellular repair to
performance readiness.
Scientific background:
Local cooling reduces tissue temperature, metabolic activity and inflammatory mediator release. Sequential pneumatic compression enhances venous return and lymphatic outflow, improving oxygen delivery and clearing metabolic waste.
Research in human sports medicine and equine rehabilitation supports this synergy — showing better outcomes than either modality applied alone.
Performance results:
• Faster reduction of swelling and
soreness, improving comfort after
intense work.
• Shorter recovery intervals between sessions, maintaining training consistency across the season.
• Improved stride symmetry and joint mobility, especially in distal limbs.
• Lower fatigue markers (CK/LDH) and
reduced perceived stiffness following
combined cold-compression protocols.
Technology adapted to equine needs:
Polar Stride integrates controlled cooling with even, programmable compression in equine-specific cuffs.
Portable, quiet and easy to operate — bringing evidence-based combined therapy to the stable, the showground, and daily routines for both competition and leisure horses.
EQUINE PRESSOTHERAPY
Cryotherapy controls inflammation and pain; pressotherapy restores circulation and drainage. Together, they drive faster healing, reduce stiffness and support muscular balance — helping horses recover more efficiently.
By accelerating lactic acid clearance and boosting tissue oxygenation, the combined therapy lets horses train harder and recover quicker — maintaining consistent performance across the season.
Polar Stride is designed for professional riders and everyday horse owners alike. Portable, lightweight and easy to use, it provides professionalgrade recovery without medication or supervision — fitting seamlessly into any stable routine.
NEXT GEN DEVICE
Polar Stride merges controlled cooling and intelligent compression into one powerful recovery tool. Developed by equine physiotherapists and inspired by elite sports medicine, it delivers real, measurable results — enhancing comfort, preventing injuries and promoting lasting wellbeing in horses of all levels.
